    Remember when Rosanne Barr got axed for her “ free speech “

    when outrage over comedian losing show>man being publicly assassinated 

    im just here for balance  =)



    Who was the President in 2018 when Roseanne was cancelled? 
    well , if you are saying Trump had them both fired you would also have to say Trump does not take sides when it comes to this 
    I think the point is that Roseanne wasn't actually cancelled due to government pressure.

    I believe changing the subject would be intentionally talking about another topic , say, fishing or something....I think that is totally on topic

    Condoning and outrage are opposing reactions and yes I know nobody is condoning murder nor am I drawing and equivalency , It is just my opinion and how I see it

    "While I don't condone murder, well he spewed hate" is definitely not outrage 

    If you saw someone that you did not know get killed right in front of you , there would be a different reaction

    Sheesh, this is the most I have ever commented in a non food thread, give me points for that LoL 
    I am always outraged by murder, I just don't express that in the same way, or in the same place - which is how I read the rest of America too. 

    I feel and express more outrage over senseless killing of children than I do, say gang members killing gang members. Some people put themselves more in the line of fire than others. Some are just pure, innocent, collateral damage.

    Level of outrage as a loyalty or purity test is a strange way to approach this.

    edit: but it's totally on brand for how this thread started.

    No what I am saying is that the government only told ABC to fire Kimmel, not Roseanne. The 1st amendment protects you from the government.  Roseanne was fired due to public backlash not government intervention. Any correlation between the two is a false equivalency.

    Apologies , but I think low ratings is a form of public backlash " I Just Won't Watch It"

    I find the assassination of Charlie Kirk terrible.  I do not find it scary.

    I find the government limiting free speech and trampling the constitution terrible and scary.

    Charlie Kirk’s death is a single man being killed.  Trampling the constitution is a travesty and impacting every single American.

    Both are illegal, but people seem to forget that.

    I would rather light a candle than curse your darkness.

    You don't have to watch it, Larry.  That's how a free market works, but that's not what happened.

    Agreeing with the outcome doesn't make it right. 

    Where is your outrage for trampling the constitution?

    What the **** kind of bat **** crazy world have we ended up in?  I thought A Maid’s Tale was not possible - now I’m not sure it won’t happen in my lifetime.  I just want to wake up from this.  Feel like I’m in an alternate dimension.

    Jay Leno said this about Jimmy Kimmel:

    “You don’t get canceled saying popular things. Usually, it’s the truth that winds up getting canceled, so we’ll see what happens.”

    Being self employed for many many years , trust me, I know how a free market economy works .  I’m just saying, if he was the #1 rated show on TV , this would not have happened… I may be wrong ( and many of you know I am lol) 

    I am 100% for everything you guys talk about so don’t get me wrong, I just don’t articulate very well my thoughts 

    go out and cook, it’s Friday

    It makes things a little easier when your ratings are down 72% from where they were 10 years ago.

    Ratings my ass…

    “They're 97% against ‒ they give me only bad publicity or press," Trump claimed in a Sept. 18 gaggle with reporters aboard Air Force One as he flew back to the United States from the United Kingdom. "I mean, they’re getting a license. I would think maybe their license should be taken away. It will be up to Brendan Carr.”

    Backside? I was thinking the frontside.

    No need to speak when simply nodding gets the job done.
